Po Anninih navodilih sem teh kuvert naredila že kar nekaj, zdaj pa je spet tak čas v letu, da pridejo prav.
I've already made quite a few of these envelopes following Anne's tutorial, and it is again the time of year when they come in handy.

Prva runda je bila predana že isti dan.
/ The first batch was given away on the same day.

Material je ostal na mizi, zato sem jih v prostem popoldnevu naredila še nekaj - na zalogo.
/ The material was left on the table, so I used a free afternoon to make a few more - to have some at hand.

Stil je (vsaj približno) v isti smeri, ker sem na mizo zvlekla samo omejeno število škatel z materialom.
/ The style is (at least to some extent) similar, because I decided to use supplies from a limited number of boxes.

Just so, almost absent-mindedly, I rolled and squashed together a pile of scraps, folded it over a few times, made some cuts ... and there they were - pretty useful patterns.
And I remembered I had chips of semi-precious stones in such colours.

I rolled some piles of scraps in single coloured sheets, stacked them in turns (light and dark ones), pressed in some patterns, cut off the slices ... and suddenly, there were enough pieces for two necklaces.

Pa sem izmerila obseg lesene osnove zapestnice, naložila proge do prave dolžine, dodala pikice in iz ostankov, odrezanih na obeh straneh, naredila še polžke. Iz najtanjših špagetkov za na zapestnico...So I measured the circumference of a wooden bracelet blank, stacked the colours up to the right length, added some dots, cut off the excess clay on both sides, and used it for coils. Those from the thinnest spaghetti for the bracelet...
